Is there a way to turn off USB charge completely?
There is manager that allows me to set power-off charging only when the notebook is plugged in or even when it's on battery, but with a certain battery level. But no "turn off completely".
The thing is, this is my only USB 3 port, and my external driver is connected to it. But I don't want it running day and night, and unplugging/replugging it is just a pain.
Config: Win7-64 Acer Aspire 8951G
Some clarification:
I have an external HDD that gets it power from the USB port. Even if I turn of the computer, the HDD won't shut down, because there's "power-off charging" on that port. This is my only USB3 port, so using an other port is not an option.
Your question is a bit hard to follow. You don't want what running day and night? Do you mean an external drive? If so, does it actually have its own battery? If not, how could it ever charge? – David Schwartz – 2012-11-26T09:39:44.727
